"This is not redundant at all; I am simply letting certain people revel in their hubris. I clearly didn’t do anything; they’re the ones who ca at with false accusations. Since these incriminating materials were handed to on a silver platter, why should I refrain from using them?"
Charlotte Thompson looked at Justin Battleson with a bright smile, then reached out to adjust his tie and suit jacket.
Justin, seeing Charlotte’s cunning smile, helplessly lowered his head to capture her lips.
Finally, Justin got out of the car early, and as expected, as soon as he arrived at the company’s entrance, a swarm of reporters surrounded him.
They almost shoved their microphones into Justin’s face, urgently rushing to ask questions.
"Mr. Battleson, what do you think about the news circulating online?"
"What exactly is the relationship between Charlotte Thompson and Riley Thompson? Can you explain?"
"According to investigations, your company’s stock price has been continuously falling. Is it because of this series of events involving Charlotte?"
Because of Charlotte’s prior instructions, the paparazzo didn’t reveal Justin’s figure in the footage when they released the video.
So on the surface, it seed like this was a tangle between Charlotte and Riley.
However, faced with the reporters eagerly asking questions, Justin seed to have no intention of engaging with them.
He simply walked toward the company, while the security personnel quickly blocked the eager reporters when they saw Justin.
"Considering their relationship, Charlotte should be nearby right now."
One reporter, who was squeezed out of the crowd, turned their gaze away from Justin and murmured softly, looking elsewhere.
Coincidentally, the reporter spotted the car parked by the roadside, and just then, the car door opened as if soone was stepping down.
Just as the journalist raised their cara in eager anticipation, Justin paused and spoke:
"The company has begun investigating the online situation, but I hope no fabricated and false reports are made until the truth cos out."
Justin’s ssage was not only a warning to the dia but also seed to suggest there might be deeper intricacies to the online rumors.
Afterward, Justin didn’t say much more and directly entered the company.
When the reporter turned back, they realized that the black sedan previously parked by the roadside had vanished.
Charlotte had entered the company through the back door.
She went straight to her office and began reviewing the online news coverage.
The dia reports were remarkably fast; the segnt of Justin being surrounded by the dia at the company entrance that morning had already been uploaded online.
Looking at the current dia exposure online, Charlotte rested her cheek in her hand and murmured softly:
"That should be about right."
Just then, there was a knock on Charlotte’s office door as Coco walked in, holding so docunts.
"Miss Thompson, the board eting is about to start."
Coco’s words served as a reminder for Charlotte. She glanced at her watch and finally stood up from her chair, the curve of her lips growing deeper.
The board eting today is likely to be quite eventful.
Indeed, as Charlotte headed to the eting room, she encountered the person walking toward her.
Leon Battleson.
